History

Company History

Founded by Wes Nicol in 1966, Tartan rapidly became an Ottawa leader in community development and home construction. The company's first projects, The Faircrest and The Highlands, are still regarded as the region's most successful apartment dwelling developments. These were followed by the company's leadership in turning Barrhaven into one of the region's most popular family communities. Tartan also undertook prestigious developments in Florida, while continuing to build homes - and a stellar reputation - here at home. Today, Tartan is under the direction of the next generation of Nicols, Wes' sons Ian and Bruce. And it is more active building superior homes and developing popular communities – and winning awards and recognition – than at any time in its’ history.
